UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTERTRAUMA RESUSCITATION

The UMC Trauma Resuscitation Center is the only free-standing trauma center west of the Mississippi, and the only Level I trauma center in the state of Nevada. It is essentially an 11-bed emergency department that provides care exclusively to trauma patients, with its own dedicated CT scanner and interventional angiography suite, along with a well-honed team of trauma nurses and ancillary staff. Situated adjacent to the trauma operating rooms and intensive care unit, the Trauma Resuscitation Center is uniquely designed to facilitate rapid evaluation and stabilization of patients with multi-system trauma.

UMC's trauma catchment area is the largest in the contiguous U.S, and includes the entire state of Nevada, as well as parts of Utah, Arizona and California --﻿ over 11,000 patients were evaluated in the Trauma Resuscitation Center last year. We offer specialist coverage in trauma surgery, interventional radiology, pediatric surgery, cardiothoracic and vascular surgery, hand surgery, burn care, neurosurgery, spine surgery, orthopedics, plastic surgery, replant surgery, otolaryngology, ophthalmology, oral-maxillofacial surgery, obstetrics & gynecology, dentistry, and urology.
